Located high in the Mayacamas Mountains overlooking the Sonoma Valley (Valley of the Moon) sits this over 400 acres of gentle rolling property consisting of very rich volcanic soils. There are an estimated 61+ acres planted to high-end, some consider (Cult-Quality) wine grapes and an additional 50.7 acres that can be planted to grapes as well.

The property sits on 5 separate parcels, most all of which can be considered as million dollar view estate building sites. The grapes that come off of this vineyard have been “Vineyard Designated” on the wine that has been made from them, and one year this vineyard produced the “Wine of the World”.

2001 Bismark Mountain Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon - 95
Opaque black hue. Huge aromas of date, fig, plum, new oak, coffee and a lightening vanilla note. Intense, though supple flavors of cherry, cranberry, plum, cedar and fruitcake spice. Lengthy close highlighted by cherry, mocha and coffee.

1997 Bismark Mountain Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon - 90
On the palate, this thick, unctuously-textured Cabernet reveals sweet tannin…as well as a long, spicy, concentrated finish.

2001 Bismark Mountain Vineyard Zinfandel - 91
This dark purple wine unleashed an array of aromas , including dark berries, cedar, mild herbs, cassis, molasses, toasted oak, vanilla, and a hint of perfume. Pepper flavors roared alongside eucalyptus, dark berries, prunes, oak, vanilla and chocolate. This full-bodied wine “finished with a growl and then a meow that purred,” said one panelist. Others described the style as initially “hot” and “eye-popping” but eventually easing into “enjoyable.” Food Friendliness: Food helps tame those tannins on the finish. Go for big-game meats, “leg of anything,” rich beef or pork dishes or a heavy pasta dish.

2001 Bismark Mountain Vineyard Zinfandel - 90
Tasting 2001 California Zinfandels:
0. Hanna Winery: 2001 Zinfandel Bismark Ranch - 90
0. Hanna Winery: 2001 Zinfandel - 88
These are both big, serious, full-throttle offerings. The dark ruby-colored 2001 Zinfandel exhibits excellent ripeness along with abundant priery fruit, soil undertones, a hint of pepper, and a long, lusty, heady finish. Drink it over the next several years. Even richer is the muscular, opulent, thick, juicy 2001 Zinfandel Bismark Ranch (16.2% alcohol). This dense, chewy, exhuberant Zinfandel possesses enough acidity and extract to support its lofty alcohol. The finish is persistent. Consume it over the next 3-4 years.

1999 Bismark Mountain Vineyard Zinfandel - 92
Fewer than 1,500 cases of this rich, fruity, massive Zin. It's late harvest, California-style all the way…Defines style most classically.

1999 Bismark Ranch Sangiovese - 91
Has the same extracted-fruit quality as Hanna's other Bismark Ranch offerings, with a percent or two less alcohol.

The elevation is 1800-2000 feet in the Cabernet blocks. Cabernet Sauvignon is the most planted variety at Bismark, comprising 23 of the 60+ total planted acres. The soils are non-existent to shallow, with white volcanic rhyolite predominating. The combination of these soils, intense sunlight, strong wind and moderate air temperature creates a distinct and powerful terroir. All vines are vertically trained. Vine spacing varies, depending on the slope.

Vineyard Production History


There are five parcels included in the offering which offer several estate building sites. It is conceivable that one could create the ulitmate family compound or with several estates and multiple support / guest accommodations. Privacy, views and the highest quality vineyard.
Approximate Property Lines

A preliminary slope analysis has been completed and shows that there are approximately 50 acres of land under a 30% slope indicating this acreage may be suitable for futher vineyard development. Additional analysis would need to be completed including soils analysis. Below is a topographical map with the potential plantable land noted by a black & white checkered pattern.
